This hospital was for french Huguenots and their descendants, wasn't it?
I don't think he was a french huguenot.

OK thanks I didn't know that.

I sent JA a PM

En français j'espère!!

[joger]

  . Yes , of course.

So I was able to have a look at some family papers that JA  cannot show here ( too many pages) .
Nothing more than what we already know.

Now he would like to know if there are police archives concerning strangers in 19th century England, anf if Anacharsis is to be found in these archives . I don't know , but maybe you do.

I will see what I can find out. I suppose it depends if 'foreigners' had to register regularly with the police. I doubt it but will investigate.
